In 1987, the 14-year-old Dutch-speaking music fan Frans Bauer wanted to record his own record. He decided to dial the phone number on the back of a record by singer Stella, after which he got on the phone with Rini 'Marty' Schreijenberg's record company. After many attempts, Schreijenberg decided to make Bauer's wish come true, but at his own expense; only 500 copies of his first single 'Ben je jong' were pressed, which Bauer himself had to sell door to door. By working in the strawberry fields he saved enough money for a new single every year.

In 1992 Bauer was ambushed by Robbert ten Brink of the Veronica program 'All you need is love' during a performance. A performance and the controversial situation with 2 Diana's who both wanted to go out with Frans ensured that the name was established. A first album was carefully started in 1993, but only in 1994 with the release of the single 'As the stars stand in the sky' and the accompanying self-titled album, Bauer finally broke through among the general public.
